Dr Topf is a remarkable doctor. HisKindness and personal attention to my wife and I made a huge difference in the experience. This is the best care I have ever received. He understood my anxiety with a cancer diagnosis and was very effective in addressing those.

I told Dr. Topf today that I wished all my doctors were as good as he is. I come from Knoxville to Vanderbilt for one reason, Dr. Michael Topf.

Dr. Topf is fabulous and I would recommend him very highly. He even noticed that my husband wasn't with me. I told him my husband had been in intensive care with Kung disease and he offered to help with the trach if we needed help. He is such a caring medical provider.
